About the gender of deities:
- Some gods are gendered but not human beings,
e.g., the Indian deity who is an elephant
a) No, but they're still gendered(and btw, that goes for hermaphrodites too, they're just gender advantaged)
b) As I understand it, Ganesha is half-human; a boy with an elephant head, rather than an actual elephant.
